I have a number of Excel files that my sales folks are accessing online.  They are all connected and roll up to a master sheet.  However, when any of the sales reps update their Excel in the online Box version they save as read only.  How do I stop this from saving as read only?

  Hi Teri, 

  Welcome to the Box Community!

  This seems more on an issue on Excel online side rather than on Box side.

  I found this third party sources of the same nature of the issue you reported, can you take a look and see if the same message appear to you and your sales reps and try the recommended tips to resolve it:

  • https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/54438/read-only-we-opened-this-workbook-read-only-from-t.html

  Hope that helps!

  Best,
